When my heart beats now,
It sounds like, “Doki, Doki.”
Instead of, “Bump, Bump.”

I read way too much manga

For my own good…

When my heart beats now,

It sounds like, “Doki, Doki.”

Instead of, “Bump, Bump.”

And I see myself…

Never the heroine but the hero

The one who’s mean, cold, and manipulative…

The one who changes in the end…

And then I smirk because those are the one’s I hate the most

I tell my friends, “Guys like that never change and it’s stupid to try to make them…”

And I believe it to be true.

I’m glad when someone likes me, especially when they’re nice

I know they’ll never leave me yet

I caste them aside

Because truly deep down with me,

I am disgusted with that look in their pitiful eyes…

It makes me sad to think that I’ll never change…

Such a lonely life…

Too bad for me, right?

    A sad and isolated theme, but I love the reading too much manga making your heart sound like doki doki :-)
